Although he was expecting that in his heart, Ning Chen definitely couldn't admit it.
Ning Chen said solemnly: "Master Cao, I think we should still believe in our people, they can make the right choice.
What's more, the pros and cons of this can be clarified personally by the official schools and the schools established by Yunshan Academy in various states.
I believe that everyone will make the right choice after knowing the whole story."
Seeing Ning Chen's persistence, Cao Xing stopped trying to persuade him.
What Cao Xing can do now is to lead students from the official school and Yunshan Academy to various prefectures and counties in Hezhou to carefully explain the pros and cons of this matter to everyone.
After leaving Ning Chen's mansion, Cao Xing went to arrange these things non-stop.
Ning Chen quietly waited for the results to be released.
The advantage of having practitioners exists is that even when there is no transportation or modern communication network.
Many things can still be handled very quickly.
For example, this kind of investigation includes various kinds of publicity.
All of this can be completed in a very short period of time.
After all, the speed of practitioners is really not much slower than that of trains or airplanes.
For communication, there is also a communication jade talisman for communication.
With the improvement of national power, coupled with the efforts to bring order to the Taoist sect.
Communication jade talismans have become completely popular among the government.
There are long-distance communication talismans that can be used between various states and counties.
Some wealthy businessmen among the people also use both distant and near communication jade talismans.
The transmission of information has become countless times faster than before.
This makes many things that were impossible in the past now possible.
For example, Wu Zhao gave Lin Dunxin half a month.
The time limit given by Linton's letter is ten days.
Because Lin Dunxin himself still needs five days to sort out this information.
In such a tight time, if there is no significant improvement in productivity, it will be an impossible task.
This convenience is also a direct benefit brought by Ning Chen's reforms to everyone.
Time passes day by day.
Ning Chen has not left his mansion at this time.
It's not that Ning Chen is afraid of knowing the result, but that Ning Chen doesn't want his appearance to affect the result.
It would be bad if they change their minds due to their own pressure.
Ten days have passed, and Lin Dunxin has received the poll results from all state capitals.
In the remaining five days, Lin Dunxin also led his men to conduct verification and statistics intensively.
Now that he has done this, Lin Dunxin must confirm this matter.
We must not allow this matter to be repeated repeatedly, and we must not allow anyone to find any flaws.
It took Lin Dunxin five days to sort out all the information.
Looking at the heavy public opinion in his hand, Lin Dunxin's expression became a little more serious.
When he went to court the next morning, everyone stared at the thick stack of memorials in Lin Dunxin's hands.
This memorial is not only thick in itself, but the weight of this memorial is also extraordinary.
"Your Majesty, I have fulfilled my mission and have obtained the national opinion poll." Lin Dunxin did not show off, but was the first to stand up after Sun Banban announced that he would go to court.
When Wu Zhao heard this, he lightly clenched the armrest with his palms.
Wu Zhao was not involved in the entire investigation this time.
After all, the clan and the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty are all watching here.
Any little bit of pressure you put on yourself will be infinitely amplified by them.
So Wu Zhao doesn't know what the real outcome of this matter will be.
"Thank you for your hard work, Prime Minister Lin. In that case, Prime Minister Lin will tell everyone the results of the investigation." Wu Zhao secretly adjusted his mood and spoke in a very calm and majestic tone.
"yes."
Lin Dunxin responded, and then began to read the memorial in his hand.
Lin Dunxin first listed some data.
For example, the number of participating states and the number of people participating.
Then there is the question of who is participating in the survey.
Then there are the problems Lin Dunxin found in these numbers.
For example, those numbers are fake and cannot be used, and the sources of those numbers are not clear enough and must be cleared out.
After various analyses, Lin Dunxin finally got to the point: "I have received valid data for a total of 96 government offices.
Among them, there are 16 prefectural governments with more than half of the people in favor of summation.
He did not agree to seek peace and wanted to protect the government offices of the champion. There were 80 government offices in total.
Even if calculated based on the total number of people, the number of people who are not in favor of summation has exceeded 90%."
After Lin Dunxin finished speaking this number, Wu Zhao secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
If the public opinion is really unfavorable to Ning Chen, then Wu Zhao can only use the majesty of his emperor to suppress this matter.
However, this would indeed have some impact on Wu Zhao's authority.
There may even be many people who continue to incite public opinion at this time, causing some chaos, which may be inevitable.
If someone takes advantage of the chaos and fishes in troubled waters.
Only then would the Wu Dynasty really fall into turmoil.
At that time, it will still be the Western Regions that will benefit.
This is probably another level of calculation by the Great Wisdom Bodhisattva.
But now, it is obvious that all the calculations of the Great Wisdom Bodhisattva have come to nothing.
Because the people of Wu Dynasty still pointed to Ning Chen.
The people of the Wu Dynasty were not as miserable as Dazhi Bodhisattva imagined.
After Lin Dunxin finished explaining the final result, he continued: "Your Majesty, minister, here are two more explanations."
"speak."
Lin Dunxin agreed, and then continued to read the memorial in his hand: "According to the minister's calculations.
Among military households, the proportion of those opposed to seeking peace was much higher than the proportion of ordinary people seeking peace.
Among the Huweijun military households, the number of people who agree with suing for peace is far less than 10%."
This figure of Lin Dunxin can be said to have shattered the last hopes of some ministers.
They originally planned to use military households as an excuse.
But they did not expect that Lin Dunxin had already thought of going ahead of them.
I had already ordered someone to prepare the numbers of military households.
"Your Majesty, this second explanation is about Baijiacheng in Hezhou and Baijiacheng in the north.
Among the two cities with hundreds of families, no one agrees to seek peace."
After a pause, Lin Dunxin took out another memorial from under his own memorial and said: "Your Majesty, this memorial was written by Cao Xing, and I entrusted the old minister to deliver it to your Majesty."
"Send it up."
Sun Banpan went down to get the memorial and handed it to Wu Zhao.
Wu Zhao couldn't help but his eyes lit up after reading Cao Xing's memorial.
After folding the memorial, Wu Zhao said to the civil and military officials below: "Do you know what is written in the memorial of Cao Xing?"
There really is no place for everyone to guess.
Wu Zhao asked Sun Banban to take down the memorial and show it to the civil and military officials below.
When the civil and military officials looked at the memorial presented by Cao Xing, they felt that the memorial written by Cao Xing was completely wrong.
Moreover, the writing is not literary at all. The key is that it is not coherent at all.
It doesn't seem like it was done by one person.
Cao Xing had the nerve to show such a memorial to the emperor for approval.
Did Cao Xing stay with Ning Chen for a long time and become very swollen?
I feel like I can be lawless.
Especially since there were many words in the memorial that criticized the ministers of the day, it was really vulgar.
Although he didn't mention anyone by name, the words were really offensive.
With such a memorial, it is not an exaggeration to directly sentence Cao to beheading his capital.
When they think of this, many people's minds suddenly become active.
After Sun Banban completed the circle temporarily, Wu Zhao said: "Do you all feel that Cao Xing's writing of this memorial is completely unreasonable.
And the words used are very rough. Apart from praising the champion Gong Ningchen, the rest are criticizing the civil and military officials of the court?"
"Your Majesty, this memorial to Cao Xing is a complete blasphemy against the imperial authority. I believe that Cao Xing must be severely punished!"
Someone immediately stood up and explained his attitude.
Then several more people stood up and echoed.
Although they didn't know why Cao Xing was so confused and arrogant, he submitted such a memorial.
But since Cao Xingdu brought this benefit to their lips, they had no reason to refuse it.
We must seize this opportunity and properly rectify Cao Xing.
Wu Zhao looked at those people who jumped out to punish Cao Xing.
He just looked at it indifferently, and then said: "The reason why Mr. Cao's memorial is so vulgar.
That's because all the words in Mr. Cao's memorial are not what Mr. Cao himself wanted to say.
This is when Master Cao went to Baijia City in Hezhou. The people in Baijia City knelt down and begged Master Cao to write a memorial for them.
The remarks in this memorial were all dictated by the people of Hezhou and recorded by Mr. Cao.
So this is a memorial to all people."
After a pause, Wu Zhao shouted to the outside: "Bring the memorial to all the people sent by Mr. Cao to the main hall."
Following Wu Zhao's instructions, four Qianniu Guards soon came up carrying a thick cloth blanket more than two meters wide and containing several people.
However, this cloth blanket is obviously not a single piece of cloth. It seems to be made up of many pieces of cloth.
"Expand!"
Wu Zhao ordered again.
Qian Niuwei received the order, and the four of them worked together to unfold the blanket.
In other words, the area of Jinluan Palace is large enough.
Otherwise, there is really no way to unfold such a blanket that is dozens of meters long.
It stretches from the gate to the location close to Wuzhao.
All the civil and military officials looked at such a patchwork of colorful blankets and were a little confused for a moment.
Fortunately, these pieces of cloth have writing on them.
It’s just that a lot of these words are not that pretty.
Of course there are some good-looking ones.
But you can tell at a glance that those good-looking ones must have been written by someone else.
A rough estimate is that there are probably tens of thousands of these pieces of cloth.
But they still didn't know why Cao Xing brought such a blanket.
"These pieces of cloth are from the people of Baijia City in Hezhou, who took the initiative to take a piece of cloth from their homes.
Then use these cloths to write down what they said to the champion and the court.
Master Cao found someone to sew these pieces of cloth together, and it became the Book of All Nations that everyone sees now."
Looking at the unclear civil and military officials below, Wu Zhao explained to everyone.
After listening to Wu Zhao's explanation, everyone understood what was going on.
Wu Zhao said loudly: "Don't you want to see where the people's hearts are? Then take a good look at who the people's hearts are pointing to."
Wu Zhao ordered them to watch it even if they no longer wanted to.
But after watching it, I really felt very uncomfortable.
Because apart from the words that praised Ning Chen, the rest of the words that criticized these ministers were really unsightly.
Even vegetarian meals with corpses are considered a very complimentary term here.
Those curse words written by the common people themselves, they really don’t even have the courage to read them.
What the people want.
This is the true will of the people.
After everyone watched for a while, Lin Dunxin said again: "Your Majesty, Cao Xing also asked an old minister to bring a message for him to the civil and military officials."
Wu Zhao agreed directly and said: "Speak!"
After receiving the agreement, Lin Dunxin also said: "Actually, this sentence was not said by Mr. Cao himself.
Rather, Master Cao summarized the opinions of the fifty thousand people in Baijia City and wanted to say something to everyone.
The people of Baijia City in Hezhou have the most say whether they want to sue for peace or not.
Because they are on the front line of the battlefield, they are the ones closest to danger.
But they chose not to surrender or seek peace.
They want to stand with the champion Gong Ningchen.
They hope that whether it is the ministers of the DPRK or the people of other states, if they want to ask for peace.
Just talk to them directly.
Others are not qualified to make decisions for them.
In addition, they also want to tell everyone that they are willing to live and die with the champion.
Even if the next fight is to destroy the city, they are still willing to follow the champion."
Lin Dunxin's words were like thunder in their ears.
This made the ministers who had previously agreed to seek peace blush.
Originally they thought they had a slight chance of winning.
But now it seems that they really have no chance of winning.
It's not just the people of Hezhou who are not on their side.
People in other states did not stand with them either.
Now Hezhou Baijiacheng is even more determined to present such a book of all peoples with such determination.
If they still want to say that seeking peace is for the general public.
That would be really hypocritical.
The will of the people is really too obvious.
Before, they thought they had control over the trend of public sentiment.
But looking at it now, they really don’t understand the people’s sentiments.
In other words, they simply don't understand the significance and importance of Ning Chen among the people.
At the same time, Cao Xing was also happily telling Ning Chen about the Book of Mankind in Baijiacheng, Hezhou.
Talking about the excitement, after Cao Xing took a sip of tea, he wiped his mouth with his sleeve. This was absolutely degrading and polite.
